    You might also be able to rent a room or something from one of the fishing outfitters in inclement weather. Might help to get to know some of the local businesses and all that.

    Healthy bread; What is there?

    I’m going to argue that modern bread is to wheat what tofu hot dogs are to pork chops, but traditional bread is more like pork sausage compared to pork chops. Changing form isn’t an issue. Adding “preservatives” (antimicrobials) or stripping away all of the nutrients is. White flour is so...

    I may be stupid (or hungover), but isn’t that a whitetail doe?

    Healthy bread; What is there?

    I took one as part of my unused biology degree. It was kinda fun. So I guess I’ll pitch in here. The bread we eat is not the bread our ancestors ate. The flour we make it with is not the same. Neither is the water. Our flour starts with wheat treated with anti-fungals to improve long term...

    That is, by definition, a requirement of a dad joke.

    West coast salmon recovery

    Chinook eat fish and are bottom-adjacent in the open ocean. Sockeye and pink are midwater krill/plankton feeders. Trawling bycatch is the biggest problem with King salmon numbers, as even the “midwater” trawlers have more than 50% bottom contact. Yet bycatch allowances keep increasing even...

    Yeti buys Mystery Ranch

    I have an old Dana pack, plus a mid-generation Metcalf. Love both of them, even if the MR is heavy. I’m always hesitant for acquisitions of gear companies- when a company is at the top of its game, I find it unlikely that it will improve.

    Habitat improved? Kill more cows!

    It is limited- draw unit. My question was more along the lines of how do we grow the elk herd? The habitat is there, but it appears the wildlife management doesn’t want to allow the herd to increase in size. So how do we do that?

    How long did it take for your first elk?

    Moved to MT in 2018, started elk hunting 2019. First shot was in 2020. miss. First elk was 2022. Small bull. So 4 years of actually trying. Multiple botched opportunities in those 4 years, both archery and rifle. Have been finding elk every ~3 days spent hunting (on average), but never really...

    HTer Fitness Goals '24 Edition

    I make no claims about wealth or paid appearance in media. But you can check a post in the Women Hunters for verification that she 1- exists, 2- hunts, and I think 3- fishes. In personal training, so she’s definitely in better shape than me 😅.

    Another disappointing poaching fine

    Ah, the classic “Hobbes v Locke” debate. Some people do better. But enough sink to the lowest allowable level that it ruins things for everyone else. It is truly a shame that hunters are such a small minority that the bulk of the public will associate these reprobates with the rest of the...

    Another disappointing poaching fine

    I mean, they were creative. “Compact bows in a backpack and arrows hidden in hollow hiking sticks” to avoid detection. But man- that is low. Ridiculous that somebody would be that driven by ego to go through this trouble.

    Great Social Media posts?

    I think because he does a lot of baiting & high fence, and is rather full of himself (cringey nicknames and wildly inaccurate hunt descriptions). That said, hunting with a spear is damn tough.
